ABSTRACT:
A planetary gear assembly may be shifted manually between a neutral position and high and low range position for establishing direct drive and reduction ratio drive modes. The assembly is shiftable as an integral unit, and requires only one mesh point when shifting to either of the high or low range positions. The ring and planet gears are unloaded in the direct drive mode, thus avoiding vibration and wear commonly experienced when running locked up.
